New Hotel.
Committeeman E. O. Keeler will at once
call a special meeting of his New Hotel
compatriots, to devise final ways and
means for the prompt and immediate in-
auguration of the enterprise. Mr. Kceler
pledges himself to be one of tWenty-five
citizens to erect a fifty-thousand dollar
house. Every business man and friend of
Norwalk ought to lend a helping hand.

The Old “Parallel" Again.
There would seem to be a reasonable hope
that the long-waited and much-hoped for
Parallel railroad scheme is about to be-
comearealize'd fact. We have the per-
sonal assurances of President Parrott and
of Director George R. Cowles, that the
chief difliculties which have so long dc-
layed the enterprise, are now substantially
overcome and that the building of a
through air line and first.class railroad
from New York to Boston, will be com-
menced this present fall and vigorously
pushed to completion. All the monied
capital required is already secured and it
is stated that the combined wealth of- five
of the capitalists, represents fully three
hundred million dollars. At all events, it
is publicly announced that no more capi-
tal is wanted. There are, at this time,
four surveying parties in Connecticut and
Massachusetts, working out the shortest,
quickest and best line between the two
great cities it is possible for modern engi-
neering skill to locate... The Vermont
Central, the Boston &. Maine and Boston
a: Providence railroad systems,arc claimed
to be interested in the immediate construc-
tion of this new through route. Through
Connecticut it will be upon the last Olm-
stead Parallel layout, and the depot 'here
is most likely to be at the point where the
new line crosses the Danhury railroad
track at Wilton avenue. At Bridgeport it
runs north of the present centre of the
city. The New York terminus will be at
50th street and Broadway, and will cost
two million dollars. At the Boston end
the main line starts from the Lowell sta-
tion, and runs through Willimantic,
New Haven, Bridgeport, Norwalk, Stam-
ford, etc., entering New York at High
Bridge and going down the west side of
Central Park.

Our New.
The adage that “ a navy cannot be built
in a day ” is clearly illustrated by the his-
tory of the "OnStl'lICIIOIl of these vessels.
Although four years have elapsed since work
upon them was begun, only two are at the
present writing ready for service at sea. Nor
is it strange that this should be true. The
experience of foreign governments shows
that delays in the building of modern ships
are inevitable. The science of ship con-
struction'is a progressive one, and changes
in the plans of vessels even after the work
of building has commenced, are often un-
avoidable. But with the experience our
manufacturers have already gained in the
production of steel for ships, and with ‘ the
aid of the Office of Naval Intelligenm, a
bureau of the Navy Department, whose duty
isto keep informed upon the latest devel-
opments in all branches of naval science
throughout the world, it may be reasonably
expected that in future such delays and
changes will be reduced to a minimum.—

A Big Sewer Scheme.
A proposition is on foot, says the New
Haven New, among the leading business
men to establish a system of sewerage
throughout the Naugatuck Valley from
Winsted totide water. The scheme orig-
inated in Waterbury, and has been dis-
cussed more or less by citizens of that
city during the summer, and especially
during the prevalence of so much sick-
ness. Mayor Boughton, of Waterbury,
and City Engineer Weld have held fre-
quent consultations with practical men on
this subject. Waterbury now has a large
sewerage system in operation; Winchester
and Torrington have more or less of a
general sewerage system ; Ansonia, Derby .
and Birmingham are constructing systems
of sewerage, and Thomaston, Seymour
and Naugatuck wrll soon follow.
The expense of constructing such a
sewer, the News says, it is proposed to
saddle the towns jointly.

Fearing J an Gould.
Down at Bridgeport, where gossips are
only too eager to turn ardent ears to ru-
mors affecting the Housatonic’s welfare,
the belief is gaining ground that Jay Gould
is openly threatening warefare on New
England stock. If this be true then a
sufllcientrcason for Mr. Bostwick’s discom-
flturc is found. Like the rest of these
millionaire railroad stock manipulators he
dreads attack from his old master, Gould.
President Clark was said to have spent
most of yesterday in New York, and this
with other minor incidents, tend to show
that a big railroad move is at hand. Pres—
ident Bostwick’s retirement from the New
England management would seem most
disastrous as matters stand, and it is un-
derstood that even now a distinct effort
will be made to preserve a system which
is the child of thoughtful planning and
unmitigated care—New Haven New.

The Work of the Fish Commission.
The annual report of the fish commission
is now being prepared The last legislature
appropriated the sum of $1,000 each for the
propagation of shad and trout, which sum
is too small to do the work properly. Like
amounts were appropriated for 1888. The
commissioners have distributed 9,000,000
shad and upwards of 330,000 trout in the riv-
ers of the state. The Housatonic, where the
shad arc hatched, is the best place for the
work in the United States. No co-operation
was received from the National department
and no money for the distribution of the fry
was in the hands of the commission. Each
commission receives only $7,000 per year,
including the preparation of the report.

Boyd‘s Directory 1887-&
The fourth biennial issue of Boyd’s
Nor-walk and Fairfleld county Directory is
now in course of preparation. This work
generally meets with satisfaction. The
firm is old, established and reliable, and
assurances are rmdc that for worth, value
and artistic make-up, it will be the best
ever given to the business public of Nor-
Walk and Fairficld county. It will contain
many new features which will commend
itself to the support of our merchants and
manufacturers. Messrs. Boyd & Hadley
still represent the firm.

Gen. Sherman at Black Rock.
Gen._W. ’1‘. Sherman and party, who
are enjoying an eastern cruise in Thomas
W. Pearsall's beautiful yacht, put in at
Black Rock, Friday evening, and were
lunchcd at the latter‘s summer residence
at Greenfield Hill. A dozen or more
prominent Grand Army men from Bridge»
port paid their respects to the gallant old
soldier during the early evening. Later
‘ Gen. Sherman and party started for New-
port.
About 1 o’clock Sunday morning a large
barn containing ‘25 tons of hay belonging to
J. W. Morehouse, postmaster at Sump
Mortar Rocks, Fairlield, was burned. The
animals in the building were rescued and
through the efforts of the local fire brigade
.Lliendjoiniug buildings were saved. The
origin of the fire is unknown 'but was prob-
ably ~:u-(~idcntal. ' There was no insurance.

P. A. Collins’ Flat: Denial.
The Boston IIeraId published Tuesday an
interview with P. A. Collins, who has just
returnrd from his trip abroad, in which that
gentleman utterly repudiates the alleged
interview between himself and the World
correspondent, in London, upon political
matters. Said General Collins 2——
“I was not interviewed in London, or
elsewhere, by the correspondent of the New
York World, or by any other person, upon
American politics; nor did l, in private
conversation with the correspondent of the
New York World, or with any other person,
make use of the language imputed to me in
that interview. The only time I met a re -
resentative of the' New York World m
London was the day when he and I, with
others, went to Dollis Hill to see the presen-
tatiou ofthe American testimonial to Mr.
Gladstone. Whatever conversation took
place that day was purely social, and among
gentlemen would be regarded as entirely
confidential. I did not say Mr. Barnum
came to me several days before my departure
for Europe and asked whether I would ac,
cept the Secretaryshi of War. For months
before the day that left Boston to depart
for Europe 1 had not seen Mr. Barnum.
Mr. Barnum never came to me. To him
and to all others who kindly suggested
political promotion in the way indicated I
rather jocosely replied that I was ‘not wear-
ing second-hand clothes this year.’ This is all
I said—privately, or rather in private conver-
sation—to the correspondent of the New
York lVorl .”
After General Collins had touched upon
other points in the alleged interview deny-
ing each of them, the reporter suggested that
the most important point was in regard to
the candidates and election oi 1888, to which
General Collins replied : '
“To the World correspondent I think I
said. as 'I did say to his chief, and as I know
to all others I have said. and as I now .re-
peat, that if Mr. Cleveland desires it renbm-
.ination he can have it without opposition,
either by ballot or aoclamation. My re-
lations with Mr. Cleveland have from the
beginning been most cordial and pleas-mt.
I believe him to be an able magistrate, and
as honest a man as ever sat in the presi-
dential chair. His solicitude in my judg-
ment is to do exactly right and if he does
not in all respects come up to the expecta-
tions of the Democratic party, we must re-
flect that he is, like the rest of us, human.”

The State Encampment.
General Graham has decided to issue no
complimentary passes or cards of admis-
sion to the encampment this year. Visit-
ors will be admitted as heretofore, without
passes, between “reveille” and “tattoo,"
that is, at any time between 0 o'clock a.
m. and 10 o’clock p. m.
The Governor will not issue passes or
invitations to camp this year, but the reg-
imental commanders will probably extend
the usual courtesies to their friends.
The Adjutant-General has issued orders
granting permission to the First Corps of _
Cadets (who will escort the Governor of
Massachusetcs) and the First Regiment
M. V. M., to pass through Connecticut on
the way to the celebration in Philadelphia
next month, and has granted permission
to enter the State to yisit the Cambridge
Guard, of Hartford, to the First and
Second Separate Companies R. I. M.,
(colored) of Rhode Island:
Senator Thomas H. Allen, of the 11th
district, formerly signal officer of the
Third Regiment, has been promoted to be
captain and inspector of rifle practice.
Hiram W. Hubbard, of New London,
succeeds Captain Allen as signal ofliccr.
A large delegation of Company K. First
regiment, will go to Niantic on Saturday,
and quarter at the Morton House over
Sunday.
The Chaplain of the Fourth Regiment,
being on leave of absence in Europe, the
Rev. Bevcfly E. Warner, of Bridgeport,
has been temporarily appointed to attend
to the spiritual wants of the regiment in
camp. .
The decision to issue quartermaster’s
stores in camp direct to companies on
arrival will probably lead to some confu-
sion, to avoid which many companies are
endeavoring to arrange to send details to
camp in advance of the regiment.

Shippan.
We spent a most enjoyable .day last
week at Doerr’s famous seaside resort.
His caravansary opens out on the spark-
ling waters of Stamford har'bor,:and along
crescent line of sand beach stretches away
on either side, suggesting tempting possi-
bilities to salt water bathers. The ride
thither from Norwalk around by the
Stamford Cove mills is one of unsurpassed
beauty, and the long and well-shaded
ridge road, down the “Point." is another
delightful drive full of salt-sea-shore cu-
chantment. Large numbers of local and
New York excursionists daily crowd the
Doerr pavilions, and sea food, in all its
tempting varieties, awaits the' hungry
guests. We soon found ourselves, per
force, with all our party, the guests of Mr.
Wm. B. Lockwood, with all that it im-
plies, which in this case seemed to in-
clude about all the markets of the world
could afford. Mr. L. 'has a pretty little
cottage on the bluff near the Doerr pa-
vilion, with several desirable lots reserved
to sell to desirable friends. The Gillespie
brothers have three cottages adjacent, and
with sailing yachts and steam launches
seem to live in oriental luxury. One of
the most desirable features of this locality
is the pure spring water that comes gush-
ing out of the lriil on every side, and pure
cold water is a prime necessity at the sea—
side and generally about the hardest thing
to findl Drive over to Shippan at the
first opportunity.

A New Railroad.
Connecticut has a new railroad in suc-
cessful operation, which so far has not
been gobbled by the oil men or the Con-
solidated system, or by the Connecticut
Western’s new western connections.
How long this state of things will con-
tinuc cannot be predicted. In common
with prevailing custom the superintendent,
Mr. Mower, informs us that no free pas-es
are given, but that some method by book,
crook or book will be adapted, so that a
free ride can be given when the interest of
the compmy will be benefitted thereby.
This new railroad connects “Mine Hill
Quarry,” in the town of Roxbury, with
the Shepaug railroad at Roxbury' station,
and is something near a mile and one-
half in length, and is, we believe, the only
road of any length in this state that IS
operated by gravity, the loaded ears in
going down drawing up the empty ones.
They are now sending down on an aver-
age seven loaded cars per day, (about 40
tons), and the time occupied in transit
averaging but two and three-quarters
minutes. Those familiar with the old
method of carting the stOne down the
precipitous and terturous mountain slope,
can readily see the vast importance of this
new road to the owners Of the quarry.
The track is three feet guage, and three
rails are used, except where the cars in
transit pass each other; at this point there
are four. The grade is anywhere from
300 to 1,000 feet per mile. The saving in
carriage by this new road will enable the
company to increase their sales to a large
extent, as the demand for their granite is
unlimited. 1:. n.

Races at Bridgeport.‘
The summer meeting at the Gentleman's
Driving Park. Bridgeport, opens this, Tues
day, afternoon, and will continue through
Thursday. There are a large number of
entries, including many fast horses from out
of town. Frank P. Clouglr, Hartford, enters
his bay mare Ada in the 2:50 and 3 minute
classes, and the black gelding Billy C. in
the 2:40 clan-is. W. J. Dwyer enters the
chestnut mare Mabel V. in the 2:40 class.
E. D. Saunders, of New York, enters the
chestnut mare Princess in the 2:28 and free-
for—all classes. Herman Fox, of Norwich,
enters the brown stallion Star Dome in the
free-for-all. But it is by no means certain
that any of the races will be captured by
outsiders, as the list of home entries is very
formidable and includes several animals with
good records. Following is the programme
of races: Tuesday, August 16, 3minuteclass
and 2:28 class ; Wednesday, August 17, 2:40
class and 2:32 class; Thursday, August 18,
2:50 class and free-for-all.
A Vermont Centennial. .
'Ens. GAZETTE:—-It is said the great
secret of the success of Vermont has lain
in the education of her sons and daughters.
The little village of Castleton may justly
be proud of the school whose one hun-
dredth anniversary has recently been
celebrated. In 1786 the people of Castle-
ton, feeling the need of a higher grade of
school than was furnished by the district,
erected at their own cost a building which
should be used as a grammar school. The
next year the legislature passed a bill
making it a county grammar school,
which continued in successful operation
until the building was burned down in
1800. Again started the school soon be-
came a boarding and day school with on
attendance of about two hundred. A
state normal school was soon added, and
the institution can look back upon one
hundred years of active, useful life.
Wednesday, August 10, saw citizens and
visitors uniting in celebrating its “ecu-
_tennial,”and happy they were in the day’s
festivities. The great seminary opened
its doors to receive returning scholars
from all over the land. The church, taste—
fully dressed with flowers and mottoes,
was well filled. The Rev. George N.
Boardman, a professor in the Theological
Seminary in Chicago, was the presiding
officer; Hon. John 1. Gilbert, of Malone,
N. Y., the speaker; both of them gradu—
ates, and a number of distinguished ladies
and gentlemen occupied the platform.
Addresses of welcome, reminiscences and
music filled up the time, after which a
bountiful repast was served in Seminary
Park, where five long tables, each seating
one hundred guests, were stretched across
lthe lawn. Toasts followed with happy
responses. The Hon. Merritt Clark, of
Pouitney, a scholar seventy-two years ago,
a member of the school corporation fifty
years, and in his nineticth- year, read an
original poem. Subject: “Poets of
Vermont.” Touching upon the past and
the success of the future he sings:
I’ve not seen peace, the golden age,
Foretold so oft by ancient stage;
The picture, which old Virgil drew,
None ever saw or ever knew ; . '
The halcyon day, quite free from club:
Is not the gift of this brief life;
The poet, paint it as he may,
Can never paint the perfect day ;
No perfect peace on earth .rs given.
That been alone is found in Heaven ;
The world moves on, man fills the marts,
And stocks and sales and varied arts
Commingle with defaults and wrongs,
The week grow frail, the strong more strong.
Moral—it’s my advice, . _
I’ll freely give without a price,
Keep out of debt, pay up arrears,
It will insure an hundred years.
In the evening there was a display of
fireworks, and a brilliant reception in the
parlors of the seminary. “n.”

Mrs. Cleveland.
En. GAZETTE :—I see the GAZETTE does
not enter heartily, if at all, in the boom of
Mrs. Cleveland. There is more of ibthan
would appear on the surface, that the press
of the country have teemed with unadulter-
ated praise of Mrs Cleveland, from the day
she was married, as there has none come to
the front to dispute it. We are sure she
merits all that has been written. and more,
too. I have beena pretty close observer of
events for the past 50 years. I have never
known an instance of the wife of a President
having her private daily walk and conver-
sation published to the world as in the case
of Mrs. Cleveland. We can hardly wait for
the morning papers we are so anxious to
hear of the wonders she has performed the
day previous. What does it all mean? I
will give you my views. But recently it
was announced that if she was eligible she
could be elected President by about an un-
animous vote ; that is, we concede that she
possesses all the executive qualifications to
preside over this great republic. They have
gone so far as to say that the Republicans
talked of nominating her. Of course they
will if it is going to be unanimous. Cannot
that disability be removed? In fact, do we
not want it removed when the welfare of
this country demands her election ? We
can elect her for life. What a blessing that
would be to this country.‘ It would do away
with presidential elections, which would
save us millions upon millions for time and
money spent, as business is always paralyzed
in presidential years. I will state one act,
that will do for all, which entitles her to
our suffrage. It seems she actually enter-
tained her guests at a reception she gave,
with a sty on her eye. Let us see: she has
been married a little over a year. She was
just then out of her- teens. It is wonderful
to see the talent she possesses at her time of
life; but she is a perfect beauty, not a flaw
in her make up ; there has not been her
equal since the days of “ Old Mother Eve.”
I shall expect in your next issue that you
will raise the Mrs. Cleveland banner.

A Life for a Life.
The GAZETTE recently published a letter
from Wilburton-by—thc-Sca, Spring Lake,
N. J. Since then tidings have come of
deep interest On Monday, 8th inst., a
bitter cry rang through the corridors:
“A man is drowning!" The excited
guests rushed to the shore. Three young
men had gone into the surf. .Two of them,.
discovering they had ventured too far.
struggled to the shore and reached it
nearly exhausted. The third, young
Trucsdalr, of Princeton College, was car-
ried out. The bathing master, Frank
Williams, and his assistant went out to aid
him, but were unable to reach him. The
terror of the excited spectators was fear-
ful. In this emergency two little girls
name up on their ponies, and with great
presence of mind dashed Off to‘ Life.
Saving Station NO 8, not far away, to
summon help. One of the brave men
rushed to the rescue and, plunging into
the sea, brought the young man ashore.
The excited father and friends rained
money upon the gallant fellow to the
amount of $170. But where was the bath-
ing master? In the concentration of
anxiety on the drowning Princetonian he
had been lost out of sight. He had car-
ried out a long life line, and the convic-
tion was slowly formed on the sympathiz-
ing guests that their faithful, humble
friend had become entangled in it, and it
had proved to him a death line. Until 10
o’clock the hope was cherished that the
body at least might be recovered. Then
one of the sorrowing, sympathizing guests
went .to break the sad tidings to the-poor
'wifc. The next merning loving sisters
from the hotel went to ,condole with and
comfort the young widow, whom they
found a sensible, attractive little woman
surrounded by three bereaved children.
Apurse of some $400 was immediately
made up for her at “The Wilburton," and
more than $20 more at neighboring cot-
tages, and subsequently they raised a
fund of $1,000., Such is an illustration of
the old, old stOry: “A life given'for a
life saved," a. n. s. n.
A Novelty In Steam Engines}
The Case Engine Company has been
formed at New Britain with a capital stock
«$00,000, of which $225,00035 mu. and
$75,000 represented by patents. The in-
vention is of a unique character, and the
history of its development reads like a ro-
mnuce. Case, the inventor, has been at
work on it for fifteen years. His theories
have been laughed dojyp, but he has perse-
vered, spending time and money, The sale
of a patent on a water-wheel, for $25,000, 3.
few years ago, has sufficed to keep the wolf
from the door, but his main attention has
been concentrated on the engine. A few
weeks ago baselyed the problem. With. a
few pieces of Miran he has constructed a
ten-horsepower engine that is only eightegp
inches long and eight inches wide. It oer,-
tuinly does the work. All tests have been
applied. Sceptical machinists who saw it at
first refused to believe that there was not
something conmaled, as the engine hangs
from the wall like a piece of'eimfting, It
has been run fora low cost per day. He
will get $50,000 in cash for his patents, and
$75,000 in stock, and he could dispose 0f
the latter for cash. It is a close corpora-
tion, only a few stockholders, all being well-
known business men.

About three months ago, noticing a letter
addressed to you in the Bee from Gen. Slevin,
in; reference to the cure of his son by :thc use
of Hall’s Catarrh Cure, we were induced to
commence the use of it for our daughter
Nelhenow fourteen years old, who‘has been
suffering from catarrh for about eight years,
during which time she has been treated by
one of the best physicians in the city. We
havealso tried the use of almost, all the
known remedies for catarrh, with no more
success than temporary relief. Many nights
have we laid awake to laid her mouth 0 on
.to keep her from strangling. Her hearing ia'd
also become affected. We were afraid that
she would never recover: We have now used
le‘bolfdes of Harm’s CATARIIII Conn, and we
believe Nellie to be entirely cured. In. a few
da s after commencin the use of it we noticed
a_ ccided change for t re better, and from that
right along she has improved, until now she
breathes as easily as any one. She sleo a well
and her hearing is perfectly good. 0 tool
that the disease is entirely removed. We
wrrfc this unsolicited letter, feeling that it is
due you, and with the hope that others may
be benefitted in like manner. We can hardly
realize that such a change could be effected in
so short atime after battling with the disease
so long. We are still usinv the remedy at
at intervals. aexit seems to bni (1 up her system.
You are at liberty to use, this in any manner
you see proper. _ ’ ' ‘
